The Arctic is entering a new ecological state, with alarming consequences for humanity. Animal-borne sensors offer a window into these changes. Although substantial animal tracking data from the Arctic and subarctic exist, most are difficult to discover and access. Here, we present the new Arctic Animal Movement Archive (AAMA), a growing collection of more than 200 standardized terrestrial and marine animal tracking studies from 1991 to the present. The AAMA supports public data discovery, preserves fundamental baseline data for the future, and facilitates efficient, collaborative data analysis. With AAMA-based case studies, we document climatic influences on the migration phenology of eagles, geographic differences in the adaptive response of caribou reproductive phenology to climate change, and species-specific changes in terrestrial mammal movement rates in response to increasing temperature.
北极正进入一个新的生态状态,这给人类带来了惊人的后果。动物携带的传感器为我们提供了观察这些变化的窗口。尽管北极和亚北极地区存在大量的动物追踪数据,但大多数数据都难以发现和获取。在这里,我们介绍新的北极动物运动档案(AAMA),这是一个不断增长的集合,包含了 1991 年至今的 200 多项标准化的陆地和海洋动物追踪研究。AAMA 支持公共数据发现,为未来保存基本的基准数据,并促进高效、协作的数据分析。通过基于 AAMA 的案例研究,我们记录了气候对鹰类迁徙物候的影响、驯鹿繁殖物候对气候变化的适应反应的地理差异,以及陆地哺乳动物因温度升高而导致的特定物种运动速度的变化。
